Jamie McKelvie Sometimes you read a bad comment on your art and think fair enough. Sometimes you wonder if they accidentally read a different book instead. Posted 1 hour ago from Twitter view more
About me: Just a note - I'd love to reply to every message I get, and I try as hard as I can, but there are only so many hours in the day. So if I take a while to get back to you, I'm really really sorry. Please don't take it personally!
I'm a British comic book artist/writer/creator/something more pretentious.
I worked on PHONOGRAM with writer Kieron Gillen. It's published by Image Comics, as are my previous books LONG HOT SUMMER and FOUR LETTER WORLDS.
I recently completed SUBURBAN GLAMOUR, all by myself. Next up is PHONOGRAM 2.
The new blog is up - http://idlehands1.blogspot.com/ - with movie reviews, toy pics and whatever spills out of my brain from day to day. Come visit! -Nomad
My graphic novel HAUNTED is now available for preorder at your local comic shop. The easiest way to describe it is "Goonies in a haunted house." You can check it out at www.hauntedcomic.com
Haunted won the Xeric award established by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle co-creator Peter Laird. If you like what you see please ask your comic shop to order it and be sure to tell any friends you think would like it. Tell your shop Order Code NOV090896
I'm an indy creator so every bit of support makes a difference. Thanks for checking Haunted out.

Hey, Jamie, thanks for becoming part of my "friend" space! I'm looking to get more plugged in with creatives worldwide through this social network.
Nice, clean, straightforward storytelling style you have! Heavy on designer influences, too. Yes, I'm a fan. Grunge is dead!
My Xeric grant winning book "Jazz: Cool Birth" is now at Aazurn.com, a murder mystery in a 1957 jazz bar, with art and type based on '50s album cover design, dig? Bebop for your glims. Plus, my cool jazz designs are now on stuff at jazzstylegifts.com. "Adam Among the Gods" and "Seductions" are also available to check out at Aazurn.com.
I'm looking forward to exploring the MySpace pages of all of my new "friends" (Man, does that sound square).
Peace! (Title) Xeric award-winning writer and illustrator (Name) Gary Scott Beatty garyscottbeatty.com jazzstylegifts.com aazurn.com
I saw CSS last night and was totally thinking of Team Phonogram when they played Let's Make Love and Listen to Death From Above. Music is Magick and ur just as AWESOME.
